Krishi-Biomite can be used at the rate of 250 ml per acre to be dissolved in 250 to 400 liters of water and sprayed thoroughly drenching the canopy, including underside of foliage. For control of europhid mite of coconut, Krishi-Biomite should be sprayed directly on all tender nuts. Spraying must be carried out during the cooler periods of the day, preferably during late evening hours.
